Toss/Fetch (AAC Scoring)

Teams have 60 seconds to make as many throws/catches as possible.

Points are awarded for catches as shown in the diagram above.

There are no “out of bounds”.

A one point bonus is awarded if a catch is made with all paws in the air at the time of the catch. As an example, a catch that is 25 yards away from the throwing line will score 5 points; 6 if the dog was completely in the air when it was caught.

The thrower and the dog must begin the round completely behind the throwers line, but may venture onto the field at any time after time has started.

Time begins when either the dog or the disc crosses the throwing line.

Stepping on or over the line at the time the throw is released is a fault and will result in no points for that throw.

All four paws must be on or beyond a yard marker in order for points to count for that distance. If the dog is in the air when a catch is made, the landing point is used in scoring the catch.

Only one disc may be used per round. A second disc may be used to lure the dog back, but it may not be thrown.

If a throw is released before time runs out, the throw will count if caught.
